Attended an open house of a Trivselhus on Asteroidvägen in Växjö today and it had one of the most stylish facades I have ever seen:P Does anyone know how they achieve that perfectly textured result?

Now, I don't know how the house you saw looks, but besides the fact that there are a number of different brands and systems to use, I would claim that it's the method of applying the surface plaster that makes it look different. Most surface plasters are sprayed on, but it's probably becoming more common to apply with a steel trowel/plastic scraper, that's how our plaster was done and then smoothed out, it gets a textured result that's more "perfect" than sprayed plaster.
 
Sprayed it might be. It didn't look as if it had been smeared with a plastering trowel, but rather as if coarse sand had been mixed into thick paint.

Well, the fact that there is a stone size of, for example, 1-3 mm applies to both spraying and hand application, the same bucket of paint can thus be both hand-applied or sprayed, what I mean by achieving a more perfect result with hand application is up to each individual to decide.
 
Hi! The fine plaster is Sto silco 1.5 mm structure that is hand troweled. I'm glad you like it because we are the ones who performed the work.

Kind regards,

Alexander at Felosann in Växjö.

Hand-scraped is what is most commonly done today; it gives a more genuine appearance, and when it comes to work on a villa, there is essentially no significant time difference!
